now [Theme] Page 1

Only death makes life real.

If now is not good, if the present is unsympathetic, then the past was simply disgusting.

Secondly: the most durable and the dead, having only begun to live, lose, in essence, the same thing. The present is all that can be lost, because that is all you have, and no one is deprived of what they do not have.

Even if you expected to live three thousand years and thirty thousand more, you must still remember that no one loses another life than the one he lives out, and no one lives out another life except the one he loses. Therefore, the longest life is no different from the shortest. After all, the present is equal for everyone, and therefore the losses are equal - and they are reduced to just a moment. No one can lose either the past or the future. For who could take away from me what I do not have?

And vice versa, whoever stubbornly tries to hold on to the past strangely takes away from modernity precisely that which will again be recognized as the future for it.

Real education begins when you dive into knowledge the way one dives into water.

It's good to love and not expect a catch.

- Quite confusing. Can't this reasoning be reduced to "I like cats because they're cute"?

You judge my present without knowing even a drop of the past.

Appreciate the present. Protect. Because in this world there is so little room left for sincerity, simplicity and light.

How terrible it is that contemporaries almost never understand that real art cannot be fashionable or unfashionable, and demand constant renewal from artists, but in my opinion an artist must remain himself!

A real person is like real wine, not diluted with water.

Everything in the world is not real. Even friends. Only real enemies, always.

The first snow is a real miracle from heaven. So beautiful and fragile...
